You, too, are wrong. From Canonical's actual announcement:

> Canonical has decided to change the default contributions to the LXD project to AGPLv3 to align with our standard license for server-side code. All Canonical contributions have been relicensed and are now under AGPLv3. Community contributions remain under Apache 2.0.

You're both kinda correct.

What Stephane was complaining about is the whole Snap package for lxd has been marked as AGPL, and that's not correct.

Check in the store, down, in the license info section:

https://snapcraft.io/lxd

Edit: also, from what I see in the commit, it doesn't make much distinction between what's AGPL and what not. https://github.com/canonical/lxd/pull/12663/commits/b8ff449d...

It is correct; the binary is AGPL, and Snap is a binary distribution method.

Thanks for the correction. Seems like the headline was incorrect in a different way.
